Planet Arus
Once a beautiful planet, now decimated by over a decade of war.
I imagine the original settlers of this world were trying to recreate
a sort of King Arthur’s Camelot. Setting up a feudal system
of government and living off the code of chivalry. The people were
happy and lived that way for generations, in harmony with each other
and the planet. King Zarkon, needing the resourses of the planet
attacked, destroying everything in his path. Leaving the planet
just a shadow of what it was before.
The
Castle
is a huge mystery to them all. When the team first arrived it lay
in ruins. Barely standing, was a castle out of Earth’s own
past only there on Arus instead. How it was still standing was a
mystery. It was finally razed to the ground by one of Zarkon’s
attacks. But what happened then is still a mystery, for beneath
the ground lay a new castle waiting for the right time to be revealed.
The layout of the structure inside identical to the one that stood
before, in fact some rooms somehow survived intact and remain in
the new castle. But, there is nothing ancient about this castle.
It is a
modern super-fortress, with all the latest technologies and weaponry's
ready to defend it. King Alfor’s spirit instructed Allura
and Coran in how to raise the new castle from its hiding space and
they do. Today there stands a mighty castle ready to defend against
any attack.
Castle Control
The brain of the castle. This is where all the castles defenses
and sensors are controlled. It is also where the team can gain access
to Voltron by the Lion shutes, taking each of them from Castle control
to their Lions' hiding places.
Lion Monument
Standing tall and proud, it is the gateway to the bridge that leads
over the water to the Castle of Lions. Atop it sits the mighty Black
Lion, ready to defend when called upon.
Allura's
Bedroom
The Recreation
Room
Where the pilots
hang out to unwind.
A City by the
Castel
One of the many
cities being rebuilt on Arus.
Galaxy Garrison
The Galaxy Alliance is the Earth's version of the space UN. “Formed
to maintain peace throughout the universe.” I imagine Galaxy
Garrison is the military strong arm of The Galaxy Alliance.
Planet Pollux
Is the sister planet to Arus. At some point they have a shared history.
One line dividing into two, each settling a different planet. Each
with a similar feudal government. The rulers all of the same bloodline.
There was an ongoing feud between the two worlds. But now, due to
the war, they have managed to put their petty disagreements aside
and have joined forces to defend against Doom.
Planet Caspia
Another neighboring planet and one that I have decided played a
important role in Keith’s past in one of my fiction arcs.
